Low Carb Pasta – A Freestyle Libre Test

There is no such thing as a (carb-) free lunch? After trying Dreamfield Low Carb Pasta with unsatisfying results I tried a new low carb pasta brand “Pasta alla Eva”. They claim to have less than 5g of carbs in 100g (uncooked )- too good to be true.

All in all this should be around 15g of carbs – a joke if you look at the full plate of pasta:

Low Carb Pasta – Yummy

One of the rare occasions where the pasta sauce has more carbs than the pasta themselves 🙂 .The pasta needed to be cooked for 15mins.

How did the low carb pasta taste?

Not bad – a bit too firm (dreamfield pasta tastes pretty much like the real thing) but okay. Maybe they can tweak their recipe a bit but I liked it. For me it is trillions of times better than shirtaki konjak noodels which I simply hate for their consistence.

If you were blindfolded you would recognize the difference to normal pasta – maybe the best way to describe is like a bit undercooked.
